This session we have enjoyed being able to lend books from our school library. This would not have been possible without the hard work and commitment of our library committee members and parent helpers who ensure all returned books are filed back on the shelves ready for eager readers to enjoy choosing.
Mrs Church would especially like to thank Mrs Espinosa and Mrs Messer for their continued help in maintaining our lovely library.

Books of the Month May/June

Our final recommendations for this year come from P2 and P6. Don't forget to check out your local libraries to see if they have these books - they could be  part of your Summer Reading Challenge!


The Amazing Spiderman - Marvel Storybook Collection
I think you should read this because it is an action packed super hero story with lots of exciting parts. Peter Parker is a fantastic hero who helps fight the bad guys with his magic long web. My favourite part was when Peter was bitten by the spider! I like to read this story to my brother.
James P2

Lemuel is one of our Library Committee members. Here are his thoughts about this book he enjoyed.


The Butterfly Lion by Michael Morpurgo
I'm recommending this book because it has a strong message to be caring to any animal. It is also very interesting, detailed and descriptive. It makes you tearful in a good way. It feels very realistic and it seemed as if I was in the book.
Lemuel P6

Books of the Month April

Here we have recommendations from P3 and P4.
Roald Dahl is a big hit with readers in P4. One book in particular was enjoyed by pupils Aiden and Chloe.


The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me by Roald Dahl
"It's funny and made me laugh when the monkey was dancing on the giraffe's head."
Chloe P4

"It's exciting and the characters are silly, funny and smart. They sing silly songs while cleaning windows!"
Aiden P4

Non-fiction books are popular with our readers and can relate to our learning in class.

100 Facts - Science
I think you should read this book because it has really brilliant facts about Science. If you want to learn really amazing things about Science then this us the book for you! It also shows you how to make things and it is a really fun book.
